Satake
The Satake were a samurai family based in Hitachi Province, where they served as hereditary governors under the Ashikaga shogunate. In 1590 Satake Yoshinobu submitted to Toyotomi Hideyoshi during the siege of Odawara and secured recognition of his lands in Hitachi.
Yoshinobu largely remained neutral during the Sekigahara campaign in 1600. Tokugawa Ieyasu reduced his domain and ordered the family to leave Hitachi for Kubota in Dewa in 1602; the Satake ruled Kubota during the Edo period.
